Buttoned back up and ticking away nicely. I wonder how many of these are still running?

In case of selfwinders you want the friction between spindle and barrel wall within a certain interval, so it would release the extra wind. There is also the possibility of spring rubbing on barrel bottom plate or lid, so I like to stay on the safe side as much as I can.

Would appear you have a malformed coil (terminal Curve) as you move the regulator it is bearing on the balance spring pushing it to the side. The regulator should be able to move from fast to slow without mechanically moving the balance spring as it should sit centrally between the regulator pins and only touch the inner and outer pins whilst in action effectivly shortening the spring or lengthening it according to its position. the attachment will give you a pictorial walk through of the action. cheers 204847356_WatchTheoryEscape-Regulator (1).pdf -
Thank you. How to determine if the Mainspring is coated? But anyway if it's an old mainspring then it's better to clean and lubricate it with some oil right?
